Ordinary radio signals are greatly attenuated at such depths, making communication with the submarines difficult. One way suggested to communicate with the submarines was a program the Navy called Seafarer that used extremely low frequency waves. If the Seafarer transmitter broadcast at 82 Hz, what would the transmitter's quarter wavelength antenna have to be in order to receive the signal? kmarrow_forward#2: The ideal size (most efficient) for a broadcast antenna with one end on the ground is one-fourth the wavelength (λ/4) of the EM wave being sent out. If a new radio station has such an antenna that is 50.0m high, what frequency does it boradcast most efficiently? Is this in the AM or FM band. This analogous to what phenomenom encountered in our study of sound wave? (Note: AM band ranges from 540 to 1600 kHz, and FM band is between 88 to 108 MHz)arrow_forward

A very brief (100 ps) laser pulse, with a wavelengthof 532 nm, is fired at the moon, where it reflects off an array of 100 4.0-cm-diameter mirrors placed there by Apollo 14 astronauts in 1971. The reflected laser light returns to earth, where it is collected by a telescope and detected. The average earth-moon distance is 384,000 km. The laser beam spreads out on its way to the moon because of diffraction, reaching the mirrors with an intensity of 300 W/m2. The reflected beam spreads out even more on its way back because of diffraction due to the circular aperture of the mirrors.a.
